A Sigh of Relief

We finally found someone who is going to help us reduce our mortgages and keep our house! The foreclosure should end shortly. It's a scary feeling when you can't really afford a rental, and you aren't able to move yet, so you have to find some way to keep a roof over your family's heads.

Kirsten and the twins are finally potty training, and starting to grasp the concept of "going in the toilet". Kirsten is still struggling, but the twins are coming along well. IF they stick to it, we should be pull up free in about 2 weeks for them. I'm not so sure about Kiki, but I'm gonna keep trying. I really don't want her in an SDC on campus if I can at all help it. I would rather her be mainstreamed with a TA! I know it's a long shot, but I refuse to believe that she can't do something. She has come such a very long way in just a few short months. It's amazing to me.

My little one who used to fear small pools,sprinklers, and any other foreign water that was not a bathtub where she could unplug it at any time....jumped into my grandfather's 10 foot deep pool and began kicking and treading water on her own and LOVED it!! This is her and Hunter enjoying the "cuzi" at Papa's house.

She's imagining now. She pretends to read story books, and sometimes even gets it right! She's attempting to potty train, where before it was "no, no panties mama. Kiki have pull ups." and those were fighting words for her! She is speaking better, and understanding more...though we are working on the tantrums and the attention span. She occasionally gets "bored" and slaps her siblings to stir up entertainment, I guess. Working on that one too.
